Now I get the build errors from #56.

Now I get the build errors from #56.

NixOS/nixpkgs#71480 fixes that.

Next problem:

The x86_64-unknown-linux-musl-as it's trying to execute does not exist.

The x86_64-unknown-linux-musl-as it's trying to execute does not exist.

Expanding the builder for the musl-binutils-wrapper, I can see:

      ldPath="/nix/store/wpj60n3r8amjlkxxj7x4dzs6ksy8k4pf-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl-binutils-2.31.1/bin"
      # Create a symlink to as (the assembler).
      if [ -e $ldPath/x86_64-unknown-linux-musl-as ]; then
        ln -s $ldPath/x86_64-unknown-linux-musl-as $out/bin/x86_64-unknown-linux-musl-as
      fi

But here the thing inside is called as:

% ls /nix/store/wpj60n3r8amjlkxxj7x4dzs6ksy8k4pf-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl-binutils-2.31.1/bin
addr2line*  ar*  as*  c++filt*  dwp*  elfedit*  gprof*  ld@  ld.bfd*  ld.gold*  nm*  objcopy*  objdump*  ranlib*  readelf*  size*  strings*  strip*

so the if is false.

Not sure yet why the x86_64-unknown-linux-musl-ld works.

Got some progress with https://buildkite.com/nh2/static-haskell-nix/builds/113:

The -A working set and stack2nix-example are building with 8.6.5, but the other things not yet.

-A workingStackageExecutables needs NixOS/nixpkgs#72019

[nh2]

I now discovered I need, via this dependency chain:

haskellPackages.H
  R
    openjdk-8u222
      cups-2.2.12
        systemd-243

these PRs that @cdepillabout made solve it:

• cups cups: enable compiling with musl NixOS/nixpkgs#71575
• libusb1 libusb1: enable compiling with musl NixOS/nixpkgs#71563
• dbus dbus: enable building with musl NixOS/nixpkgs#71560

I'll cherry-pick those.

I also need: NixOS/nixpkgs#72032

I also need: NixOS/nixpkgs#72032

Made improved PR NixOS/nixpkgs#72057 for better polkit support.

May not need it in the end for static-haskell-nix because I've disabled (for H) R's openjdk support; it came in via

haskellPackages.H
  R
    openjdk-8u222
      gconf
        polkit

The PR may nevertheless improve musl support for the future.

Another PR for R static libs: NixOS/nixpkgs#72058

[nh2]

I found that before this master update, I didn't encounter H's dependency problems like R and openjdk, because H didn't evaluate even, because openjdk has assert stdenv.hostPlatform.libc == "glibc";` in

https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/4c0afa17702c32f40c70482bd16e47b37b30214e/pkgs/development/compilers/openjdk/bootstrap.nix#L7

that was triggered; apparently now it no longer is when evaluating haskellPackages.H.

I have squashed.
